Intramurals

Intramurals at Heidelberg provide all students an opportunity to participate in recreational sports and are an integral part of campus life. Participation in intramurals provides friendly competition, exercise and recreation. The emphasis is on fun, not competition. Winning is not the primary goal but rather, the opportunity to exercise, develop leadership skills and meet new people are the greatest rewards of intramural sports. Read more.
